    What’s not clear is whether they will box it or when they are coming to pick it up (if they even do). fed Ex is about an hour away for me and I’m not about to take time off work for this.

    Ya dude I’m lost too. I told them to just get me a shipping label and fedex does pickups at my work. But they want to pick it up from home. That’s not gonna happen. This is turning into a pain

    I’m pretty sure I already asked this but u are running cam gears with your cams? Still trying to figure out to do it or not.

    I'm not but I keep thinking I want to try it. Maybe even 2° instead of 3°

    I am debating about getting a set since my valve seal's are leaking but the question is how good do these fit ie not haveing the option to swap shims around since there far cheaper than full bucket.

    and I figure there should be some good gains since our cam shafts stock are more forword being a n/a cam than a supercharged cam.

    this would give me motivation to do my valve seal's


    oh ya most importantly will the valves hit when rolling to check valve lash ?

    I only needed one new bucket full I messed a valve up. All overs were in spec.
    When checking valve last just set to top dead center on cylinder one and then spin another 90 degreees and no valves will
    Hit any pistons.

    @Torspd do you think there are gains over the static intake gear cams that you have? Or what would you say the power band differences are?

    I took them out and reinstalled the OEM cam gears. Lost a lot of low end torque, without them.

    Interesting. So you think the Kelfords from this thread result in more low end than OEM?

    That was a comparison of them without it versus with it. I can feel a difference with the OEM ones, but I don't know how much that translates to on a dyno.
